Design, Make, Play Innovation Camps are designed to explore concepts in science, technology, engineering and math, build problem solving and communication skills, and inspire the next generation of innovators. Each camp includes interactive activities, exhibit exploration, a student certificate of completion and a free six-month student membership. A mid-morning snack is provided.

Children will engage in hands-on activities that demonstrate amazing animal adaptations found in insects, reptiles, mammals and birds. Then they will apply that knowledge to solve a series of design challenges that will help an animal or inspire a new invention. Design prosthetics to help an injured bird, create a prototype for a new paragliding suit, or build a better spider web. Live creatures will be featured!

A mid-morning snack will be provided. Exhibit exploration, a student certificate of completion and a free 6-month student membership will be included for all camp participants. For more information, call 718-699-0005 ext. 320 or email aware@nysci.org.

Reach for the stars inside NYSCI’s Stellarium, a uniquely shaped room designed to view the night sky. Learn about the constellations, moon phases and the planets in our solar system. Conduct experiments to discover what conditions are necessary for life to survive on other planets or how it might adapt to conditions that are hostile to mankind. Blast off with us as we explore the many wonders of the solar system and furthest reaches of the universe.

A mid-morning snack will be provided. Exhibit exploration, a student certificate of completion and a free 6-month student membership will be included for all camp participants. For more information, call 718-699-0005 ext. 320 or email aware@nysci.org.

Have you ever wondered how toys are made or thought about a cool toy idea? Join us in our Maker Space, where we will explore the mechanics of toys by taking them apart to figure out how they work and tinker with everyday materials to design, modify and build toys of our own. Throughout the program we will use a variety of woodworking and digital tools to bring our designs to life.

A mid-morning snack will be provided. Exhibit exploration, a student certificate of completion and a free 6-month student membership will be included for all camp participants. For more information, call 718-699-0005 ext. 320 or email aware@nysci.org.
